Geoff Gonzalez captured the 98th California State Amateur at Lake Merced Golf Club in Daly City, Calif. on Saturday, June 27, becoming the first player in 15 years and only the 12th overall to win both championship and medalist honors. The rising senior at Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo defeated 46-year-old Jeff Wilson of Fairfield in the 36-hole match-play final by the score of 3 and 2. Wilson, the 2008 SCGA Mid-Amateur champion, holds membership in both the Northern California and Southern California golf associations. Wilson led for most of the match, but was unable to get his putter going. His path to the finals took him through veteran Southern Californian mid-amateur and 1999 champion Tim Hogarth of Northridge, Grant Rappleye of Elk Grove, 1994 champion Steve Woods of Cupertino (the last State Amateur champion/medalist), and defending champion and co-medalist Nick Delio of Valencia.
